Ginobili was injured in a first-quarter collision with the Boston
Celtics’ Chris Wilcox during the Spurs’ 103-88 win Saturday. He lay on
the floor for several minutes with what was later diagnosed as a thigh
contusion, according to the San Antonio Express-News. Ginobili left with 2:42 remaining in the period and did not return.
“He got a thigh contusion just above his knee,” Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said, “and one would think he is going to be stiffer than (heck) tomorrow. It’s hard to believe he’d be ready day after tomorrow for Oklahoma, but I’m not sure.”
Ginobili has played in all but three Spurs games this season, serving as their emotional leader on a nightly basis. He sat out the first two games of the year with back spasms and was rested when the Miami Heat visited San Antonio on Nov. 29. Since then, he has dressed for every game. For the season, he’s averaging 11.5 points, 4.5 assists and 3.5 rebounds for the 19-6 Spurs.
